is someone able to clarify whether the “bug” outlined in this issue is expected behavior or not? should i close this one out or should we be working on a fix for this?

lmk - thanks!

I agree with everyone that this is not a bug. Let’s close this!

Seems like everything is working as expected, not sure what is the issue here

Hey @maddylewis,

I investigated the issue, and I am not able to reproduce the issue. For code transformation, it is working all fine: image image

However, for heading, the only issue is that we need a space between the text and the dash to preview it as a title. instead of #heading try # heading image

I hope this is not an issue.
